The goal of this project is to examine the effects of Connecticut’s policies related to child care subsidy payment rates, family co-payments, and eligibility on families’ access to affordable, high-quality child care that meets their needs and supports their children’s healthy development. During the planning grant project period, the project team will: 1) refine the logic model for a rigorous evaluation of child care subsidy policies, 2) assess administrative data gaps and opportunities through a comprehensive data catalogue and conduct preliminary analyses of such data, and 3) develop a plan for a rigorous evaluation of child care subsidy policies recently enacted in Connecticut. The goal of the data catalogue is to clarify the child care subsidy administrative data that exist, in what format those data are saved, and where those data can be found so that it is clear which gaps will need to be filled through primary data collection over the course of a future evaluation.
